Two thin-walled concentric conducting spheres of radii 5.0 cm and 10 cm have a potential difference of 100 V between them.
 
  (k = 1/40 = 8.99  109 N  m2/C2)
  (a) What is the capacitance of this combination?
  (b) What is the charge carried by each sphere?

Question 2

Blocks A and B of masses 10 kg and 7 kg, respectively, are connected by a rope, which passes over a light frictionless pulley, as shown. The horizontal surface is rough. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.40 and 0.20, respectively.
 
  External forces P and Q act on block B, as shown. In Figure 5.20, force P equals 28 N. The maximum value of force Q, for which the system remains at rest is closest to: A) 140 N
  B) 120 N
  C) 98 N
  D) 110 N
  E) 130 N

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

There used to be a metric calendar, as well as metric clocks. The metric calendar, or "French Republican Calendar" divided the year into 12 months, but each month was divided into three 10-day weeks. Each day had 10 decimal hours. Each hour had 100 decimal minutes. Due to lack of popularity, the metric clocks and calendars were ended in 1795, three years after they had been first marketed.
